Ruby Sweet

I am very excited to share another project made using one of the new images from Polkadoodles.

Meet Ruby Sweet. She is available in both a black and white version for you to color and also a precolored version.

She is gorgeous and I know she will be one of my favorite images to use. Today I am sharing a birthday card but I can see her on so many different types of cards. After coloring her with copics, I painted her dress with extreme glitter paint. I like to use the Halogram paint. It is clear and paints over the copics beautifully. When dry, it just gives a nice sparkle. I added a clear gem to her hair for her hair pin.

My card is a gate fold card with a window. It is super easy to make but I have to admit I did struggle a bit. The reason why I struggled is I hate to measure. I prefer to just "eyeball" it. Anyway, in order to make this card with the layers work, you do need to measure a bit.

I used very few embellishments for this card because the digi and the papers are all so gorgeous that not much else is needed. The papers are also from Polkadoodles and are part of the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles paper sets.

Thanks so much for entering your lovely card into our 'Anything Goes with a Handmade Bow' challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ this month. I look forward to seeing what you create for our next challenge. Hugs, Kathy

This is absolutely gorgeous. Lovely design, gorgeous soft pastel colours and beautiful image. Nice work. Love it. Thank you for sharing with us over here at "A Perfect Time To Craft" and best of luck with your entry.

About Me

I absolutely love paper crafts!! I am a scrapbooker but my favorite craft is card making. It is so much fun to pick out paper, ribbon, embellishments and sentiments to send to someone special. I enjoy stamping, embossing with my cuttlebug and of course using my Cricut die cutting machine. I have two teenage sons and a dh who may not share my passion for crafting but at least will feign interest when I show off my latest project.
